These drawings are part of a series of work which deals with perceived space in modern building complexes. Basing my investigations on the Mediapark in Cologne I examine the conditions and processes inside business parks constructed of glass and steel at the level of sensory perception.

I am interested in the shaded side of transparency, the unpenetrableness and emptiness which both visually and acoustically generate diffuse surroundings. The drawings are marking and mapping emptiness, the network of relationships of motives and neighbouring architectural forms. Boundaries of buildings and connections appear diffuse, the various transparent surfaces visually overlap inventing another space.
